Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whey protein powder, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, melt the coconut oil and add honey, vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and press gently to flatten.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until cookies are set. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
For the ice cream filling, mix Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla protein powder until smooth. Freeze for about 1 hour or until firm enough to scoop but not hard.
Once the cookies are cool, place a scoop of the protein ice cream onto one cookie and top with another, pressing slightly to form a sandwich.
Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
